help! G.D. frightened of bath

Has she had a near drowning experience at all? Maybe in the pool?

First suggestion: Use one of those suction animall mats to stick over the plug..

Second sugestion: Buy a large washing tub and put it into the bath.

Third suggestion: stop trying the shower. She may not like to force of the water touching her skin. Some children find it somewhat painful.

Fourth suggestion: fill the bath with loads of shaving foam, let her wear a costume and colour the foam with food colouring. Let her play in there.

Hope you find a solution. It must be tough.

Thanks for all the suggestions. They managed to get her in the bath yesterday and even washed her hair! She went in with D.D. think seeing the new baby in the bath had helped.

She'll probably be fine now then. DGS went through a similar phase last year just before he was three. Refused to go anywhere near their bath. Then he came to ours for the weekend and I just popped him into our bath with a load of new toys and he was fine. He was then ok when he went home. Never did find out what the problem was.
